Principal's message

Welcome to Deerwood Elementary! I want to take the time to say thank you for welcoming me with open arms into the Deerwood family. I am truly blessed to be your Principal and I am dedicated to creating a collaborative community of future leaders.

This year we will be working endlessly to ensure that our students receive a high-quality experience with their education. We will also be working to include our community with more events such as Multi-Cultural Night, Progress Report Nights, student performances and Honor Roll Celebrations. Our goal this year is to be THE most improved school in Osceola County. With the effort of the Deerwood staff, students, and community, I have faith that we will achieve our goal.

I invite anyone to take rigor-ignition walks with me around the classrooms to see the improvement we are making with instruction. I want you to see how we are building a staff and student population that is committed to learning. I also challenge you to get our students to school and on time every day. Every day that is lost is one more day that our students fall behind.

I am exited to be a part of the excitement here at Deerwood! I am looking forward to getting to know all of you and building the foundation necessary to prepare our students for college. Here's to a great journey ahead!
